I'm sorry Chiefs fans...

I want to start out by saying that I am not a Chiefs fan, but I do have a great respect for the team and Andy Reid. The Chiefs have made it further than anyone could have ever dreamed and they deserve it too. All that aside, with your upcoming game in Denver, I have to voice one concern...

Alex Smith.

Now before you call me a "hater," hear me out. I am a 49ers fan that wanted badly for Alex to do good and when Harbaugh came in, my wishes seemed to come true. The team made it all the way to the NFC Championship game and the Super Bowl was just around the corner. Of course, as you all know, Kyle Williams had something to say about that (2 muffed punts). To me, however, Kyle Williams did not deserve all the blame. Alex Smith was only 1 for 13 on third downs, 1 for 13! Still, all the focus was on Kyle Williams.

The point I am trying to make here is that the Chiefs with Alex might, with enough heart, get past Denver this upcoming Sunday and, down the road they might even win a playoff game with Alex, but the Super Bowl is just not a plausible goal with him. The Chiefs, as far as I can tell, are just like the 2011 49ers, except with a weaker run game. Although Alex Smith might not blatantly lose you a play-off game, he will set you up for a loss. It might be in the form of a fumble from Charles or a muffed punt, after Alex puts the team in that situation by, say, going 1 for 13 on third downs. After the loss, the blame will not be on Alex, but you will know, just like I did 2 years ago, that he is to blame.

I hope I am wrong about this, I really do (You do not know how bad I want to see a 49ers-Chiefs Super Bowl). Still, I know you know, deep down inside, that Alex is a liability.

It is clearly stated. The implication is that "mistake-free football" does not automatically translate into production, as is the case with Alex Smith. My original post was clear, you are going to win games with Alex Smith, but Alex Smith is not going to win you games.

And you are in a very small minority if you do not think the QB is the most important position on an offense. There is a reason that the Colts post-Manning and pre-Luck were so horrible. Alex Smith was an upgrade for the Chiefs, I know that, but he cannot get to the big game.

I love how your assuming that the 49ers have a better chance at getting to the Super Bowl because you are just a pro analyst? Our chiefs have a better chance as it stands right now than the 49ers do. Being that we are the division leader and would have first round bye and home field advantage if the season ended today. How's about letting the season play out before you come running your mouth about our team/quarterback

I'm good friends with a niners fan from back in high school today he was begging for Alex back LOL. Of course he's the type that says the seasons over after every loss. But it was still funny as hell

...That's NOT what Chiefster is saying. You are taking what Chiefster is telling you and ripping it out of context. Chiefster is telling you the QB, no matter who he is can't do it by himself, which is in no way shape or form saying the QB isn't important....

Alex Smith is 29-6-1 mark in the last 36 NFL games he's started. Pretty damn good if you ask me!
